"I moved out here when I was 18, 19. Childhood was a little bit rough. My parents were not really around me a lot. I ended up being alone a lot, and that kind of hurt me a little bit. In some ways I was craving the attention from my family but I never really got it. When I moved out here and I had my daughter, I had a lot of issues with her dad. He was very controlling and physically too."

"I first came across Volunteers of America 22 years ago at the 10-day program on Island Street in San Diego, and I was a resident of the 10-day program. They provided a place for me at a stage in my life to lay a new foundation and reset a course for the direction that my life was headed."

Vulnerable has many faces – a family member, a friend, a neighbor. Volunteers of America’s goal is to help create a path to a more vibrant, productive and purposeful life. We have helped co-create thousands of life-changing success stories. Let Volunteers of America be that gateway, transforming vulnerable lives to vibrant ones.
